Did you really beat the parlay when you spent 50-100 times the cost of the parlay base? Using that logic then do the math if you actually parlayed that $25 bucks and calculate the ROI. This mythical comparison vs the Parlay is something I cannot and will not ever understand. To each his own. Good luck today.
One has nothing to do with the other.

No. My point was that comparing the pick 4 payout to the parlay is not an apples to apples comparison because no one plays the pick 4 for a 50 cent total ticket.
